Original Note:
The post implies that Pickton may be paroled. He is eligible to *apply* for day parole, & will have to go through a review. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/robert-pickton-farm-vigil-1.7122038 For example, Paul Bernardo was also eligible, & was repeatedly denied. https://globalnews.ca/news/7969895/paul-bernardo-parole-hearing-teen-killer-rapist/ The Supreme Court of Canada says life without parole is cruel and illegal: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2022/may/27/canada-supreme-court-life-without-parole-cruel-unconstitutional
